In conjunction with the launch of Borderlands 4, Gearbox is offering a number of Twitch Drops and SHiFT rewards that allow players to grab exclusive loot at launch. From September 11th through September 30th, players can watch official and creator partner streams to unlock cosmetics and Legendary weapons that scale with the player’s level.
Players can also unlock the Hazard Pay weapon skin by linking their SHiFT Account and signing up for newsletters. Players will also be able to grab a Legendary weapon from official streams. The combined Twitch Drops and SHiFT drop reward will help power up players’ loot and loadouts early in the game while giving the community some things to do at launch.
Borderlands games have always been about encouraging player engagement with special events and rewards, and the new rewards on offer when players start up Borderlands 4 will give Vault Hunters a reason to stay tuned right from the start. Players will have plenty of reason to sign up and start streaming once Legendary loot is on the line.
How Twitch Drops Work in Borderlands 4
To earn rewards, players must connect their Twitch and SHiFT accounts, then watch Borderlands 4 streams during the promotional period.
Here’s what you can unlock:
- Watch, Drop, and Roll Skin – Watch an official Borderlands 4 or Gearbox channel stream for 20 minutes to earn the ECHO-4 Drone Skin.
- Forsaken Chaos Legendary Shotgun – Watch any Borderlands 4 stream for 2 hours between September 11 and September 30 to claim this community-named shotgun.
- Midnight Defiance Legendary Sniper Rifle – Watch partnered creator streams for 2 hours during the same timeframe to unlock the sniper rifle.
Please be advised that the shotgun and sniper rifle have separate watch times so you will need to watch a total of 4 hours to unlock both. Once all the rewards are collected in the Twitch Drops Inventory they must be redeemed to a linked SHiFT Account.
The gear will scale to your Vault Hunter's current level at the time of collection. Must be level 5 or higher.
How to Unlock the Hazard Pay Weapon Skin
The Hazard Pay weapon skin is exclusive to SHiFT users who opt into newsletters.
To claim it, follow these steps:
- Create or log into a SHiFT Account.
- Link your gaming platform account under the “Gaming Platforms” tab.
- Opt into newsletters and marketing updates, which is required to unlock the cosmetic.
- Log into Borderlands 4 at launch with your SHiFT Account connected to receive the Hazard Pay skin.
Watch your email inbox as well, as Gearbox and 2K often send SHiFT codes for Golden Keys and other time-limited loot in emails to players.
